Function Menu
CX Scale
This scaling mode was designed specically to allow the scaled down and top centered ’gate check’ output from Codex™
ARRIRAW Recorders to be scaled full screen. Once assigned to a function key you can quickly enter or exit this custom
scaling mode with a single button press. Please note that some functions, such as markers, will not work while this mode is
active. However, other useful functions such as Waveform and Vector Scope will continue to operate normally.
C-Log, S-Log, S-Log2, S-Log 3 and BMD-Log Modes (Also selectable via Video Menu)
These modes allow for easier on-set monitoring of uncorrected of C-Log, S-Log, S-Log2, or BMD Cinema Camera Film
Mode Output by roughly normalizing the footage. For all Log modes there is both a Standard and Full selection. The
Standard selection is suitable for most applications, but does clip highlights to allow for a brighter overall image. The Full
mode is best used for scenes with extremely wide latitude or scenes that are just very bright overall. Full mode preserves
the entire native latitude of the signal (nothing is clipped), but this can result in a rather dark image in many applications.
We provide both for this reason and you can quickly toggle between them as needed for different applications by assigning
these modes to function keys. These modes should only be used to offer on set viewers a rough normilization of the footage
to give them an idea of what the content might look like as a starting point in post production. In other words, it provides you
with a helpful tool to show on set viewers something that does not look ‘at’. These modes are not a replacement for full 3D
LUT transforms and not a substitution for proper color correction in post production applications. For more advanced Log
mode normalization use a custom 3D DIT LUT.
Rec. Status Tally
This function is designed for use with cameras that output Start/Stop Record ags in the ancillary data of their serial digital
output. To activate this function set Rec. Status Tally to a function button and press that function button once. While active
the monitor’s red tally light will turn on when the Start Record SDI ag is detected and will turn the red tally light off when the
Stop Record SDI ag is detected.
On-Screen Tally
When activated this function will generate an onscreen box that mirrors the status of the physical tally on the monitor’s bezel.
This can be particularly useful in applications where the physical tally may be obscured.
Max Sharpness
In addition to the Sharnpess Level Setting found on the Video Menu there is an assignable function called Max Sharpness
that will allow you to use a function button to toggle in/out of maxium sharpness mode quickly.
Blue/Red/Green Only
This function activates the monitor’s Blue Only, Red Only, and Green Only modes. The respective channels can be shown
as just that color (Red, Green, Blue) or as monochrome.
